I really love a lot of girl names with the [name]Anne[/name] in them and obviously cannot use all of them at least for first names. I am old fashioned and have an old fashioned taste. I don’t believe that names come with expiration dates no name ever gets “dated.” Thank-you for understanding. [name]Courtney[/name]
[name]Anne[/name]–love this spelling
[name]Diane[/name]–I like [name]Diana[/name] even better
[name]Danica[/name]–love this!
[name]Frances[/name]–great mn
[name]Janna[/name]–pretty
[name]Joanna[/name]–I like it
[name]Leanne[/name]–how about [name]Leanna[/name]?
[name]Susanne[/name]/[name]Susanna[/name]–love [name]Susanna[/name]
From your list, [name]Susanna[/name], [name]Joanna[/name] and [name]Danica[/name] are my favorites.
[name]Anne[/name]: I [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Anne[/name]!!! [name]LOVE[/name]!!! It’s a classic, and I love how it’s underused these days. I think it’s so elegant. I never tire of hearing it or seeing it, every [name]Anne[/name] I know has been amazing (including fictional Annes like [name]Anne[/name] of [name]Green[/name] Gables and [name]Annie[/name], from the musical), and to me, [name]Annie[/name] is the most cheerful nickname around!
To make matters more difficult, here are a couple you may or may not have come across and ruled out already:
[name]Anwen[/name]
[name]Annora[/name]
[name]Antonia[/name]
[name]Anthea[/name]
[name]Clancy[/name]
[name]Fantine[/name]
[name]Ianthe[/name]/[name]Xanthe[/name]
[name]Isannah[/name]
[name]Pandora[/name]
[name]Sancia[/name]
[name]Vianne[/name]
Not including names like [name]Anneliese[/name] and [name]Julianne[/name] of course…
I love how all the names can give you the [name]Annie[/name] nickname! [name]Annie[/name] is an awesome nickname, but plain [name]Anne[/name]/[name]Anna[/name] is a bit dull… ^^
My favorite is [name]Leanne[/name]! I renamed myself that name 9 years ago when I could no longer stand my birth name “[name]Jerri[/name] [name]Jean[/name]”. [name]Diane[/name] was my second choice. [name]Marianne[/name] is also so beautiful to me. [name]Suzanne[/name] not so much and [name]Frances[/name] I have a real aversion to.
[name]Anne[/name]–I really like [name]Anne[/name], but prefer [name]Anna[/name] or [name]Annie[/name], more interesting
[name]Diane[/name]–I’m not a fan of this because for me personally it sounds dated, but if to you it doesn’t then by all means it is a great name. I prefer [name]Diana[/name], though.
[name]Danica[/name]–I know two girls named this but one pronounces it [name]Dan[/name]-ih-kuh and the other Duh-neets-uh. [name]How[/name] would you say it?
[name]Frances[/name]–Once again, a little too old for me. Maybe in the middle? I prefer [name]Francine[/name] over anything, though.
[name]Janna[/name]–This is cute. To me though it sounds a bit like all the trendy names that once were and now are falling behind.
[name]Joanna[/name]–Sorry, I’m really not for J names.
[name]Leanne[/name]–I know, I know, you don’t believe in expiration dates, but to me this one really feels out of place on a little girl. Unless, of course, you named her [name]Leanne[/name] but called her by the nn [name]Leah[/name] or [name]Anne[/name]/[name]Annie[/name]/[name]Anna[/name]. Or, I don’t mind [name]Leanna[/name]. It sounds fresher.
[name]Susanne[/name]/[name]Susanna[/name]–I prefer [name]Susanna[/name], but I’ just not really a fan. I love the nn [name]Suzie[/name], though!

[name]Anne[/name] - one of my most favorite names, also love [name]Anna[/name].
[name]Diane[/name] - [name]Diane[/name] is pretty, but isn’t in style. [name]Diana[/name] is more timeless.
[name]Danica[/name] - love, love the meaning, too.
[name]Frances[/name] - this is one of my favorites, too.
[name]Janna[/name] - I don’t like this one as much, but is is okay.
[name]Joanna[/name] - classic and lovely, but doesn’t thrill me.
[name]Leanne[/name] - I knew an awful girl with this name. Sorry, I could never like it. Unless I met someone really nice named [name]Leanne[/name].
[name]Susanne[/name]/[name]Susanna[/name] - Yes, I love this name so much!

Many baby names I’ve thought of have to do with [name]Ann[/name]/[name]Anne[/name] as well!
[name]Anne[/name]- Timeless like [name]Mary[/name], [name]Margaret[/name], [name]Catherine[/name], [name]Elizabeth[/name], and [name]Sarah[/name]…you will find them on a newborn or 90 year old.
[name]Diane[/name]- I’m neutral on this name. I don’t love it but I don’t not like it either.
[name]Danica[/name]- I’m from [name]North[/name] [name]Carolina[/name], and this reminds me of NASCAR’s [name]Danica[/name] [name]Patrick[/name].
[name]Frances[/name]- I like this name. [name]Fran[/name], [name]Frannie[/name]/[name]Fannie[/name] as a nickname for a girl. Also a good boys name I think.
[name]Janna[/name]- My name is [name]Hannah[/name] so I think of [name]Janna[/name] as a knockoff (:
[name]Joanna[/name]- Like this name. I know someone named [name]Joanne[/name] it’s a mix of her parents [name]Joseph[/name] and [name]Ann[/name]
[name]Leanne[/name]-I like this OK. I have a friend named [name]Leigh[/name]-[name]Anne[/name] who pronounces it like one word. It’s like [name]Marianne[/name] and [name]Mary[/name]-[name]Anne[/name].
[name]Susanne[/name]/[name]Susanna[/name]- [name]Susannah[/name] (with an H!) is a family name of mine I like it a lot! I also think “O [name]Susannah[/name] O don’t you cry for me…”
Other names I like with An/[name]Ann[/name]/[name]Anne[/name]/[name]Anna[/name]

[name]Georgiana[/name]
